I have this problem pretty often myself unfortunately. If you just want 
to get it to work ASAP even if it's not the most elegant situation, just 
add @ANYSTRING::@ to the end of your parser, right after the last non 
whitespace character of the message and it will "eat up" the trailing 
chars to successfully process the string.
